It's easy - just do "set end XXXXXXXXXXXX" where the X's are a 12 digit hex
number, Livingston says to use an ethernet mac address for one of the Pm3's
for this value. I just set mine to "1" so it is 000000000001 and it works
fine. Make sure they're all on the same Ethernet because it learns the
other PM3's with simple broadcasts and set the endpoint values the same on
each PM3. You can verify that a PM3 "sees" another like this:

gup-dpm1.cia-g.com>show mcppp
Neighbors:
gup-dpm2.cia- (207.66.82.6)
